(DUBOIS CO.) - Dubois County will sell tax liens and special assessments due from prior year’s spring installment on delinquent property at a tax sale Thursday, September 11.
There are currently 43 properties available for the tax sale, totaling $80,862.90 in delinquencies.
SRI Inc, of Indianapolis, will conduct the sale.
In Indiana, the county treasurer and auditor are required to sell tax liens on delinquent properties that remain unpaid from the prior year's spring installment. Dubois County will offer the tax sale certificates at a public sale that is not less than the total amount due in delinquent taxes, costs, and penalties.
County Auditor Kathy Hopf says the purpose of the tax sale is to collect back taxes to help fund local government services.
In addition to serving as a source for local governments to collect unpaid property taxes, tax sales also serve as an opportunity for real estate investors to earn interest income upon redemption of the property within one year from the sale, or to take title to the property through a post-tax sale process that involves petitioning the local court for a tax deed.
Persons interested in registering and bidding at the Dubois County Tax Sale should visit the SRI, Inc. website at www.sri-taxsale.com and read the information regarding tax sales.
